New at NAMM - Sire Headless Fanned Fret

Post by pjmuck »

No, I'm not at NAMM, but somebody posted this shot on Facebook. The Sire website looks like it's still a work in progress, but it looks like they're hopping on the fanned fret headless trend too. (A cheaper alternative to the Ibanez EHB1005MS?). It will be curious to see what they're going to cost. I'd prefer a 36-37" scale instrument, and that piece of wood at the end of the headstock looks odd, IMO, but I would expect there will be lefty offerings:

Here's another link to new models and colors. There are two additional models, a P6 and a V6. These two models are aimed at being lightweight (8lbs or less on average) with a natural wood grain show through.

Man, the Marcus Miller line has really grown since I last checked it out. I didn't even have the patience to look through all their lefty models just now. :-)
